Damnation

A war lasting more than 40 years between the nationalists and forces of the coalition has shaken the world of Damnation, historic North America. The natural resources are destroyed and the industrial magnate W.D. Prescott, leader of Prescott Standard Industries, overruns the country ravaged by the fighting to destroy the remnants of the military, subjugate the civilian population, and establish his own order. In the role of Rourke, a member of the Peacemaker rebels, the player sets out on a long and perilous journey to reveal the gloomy truth behind Prescott Industries, find a lost love again, and save the world of Damnation. Damnation combines fast-paced action and gripping battles in gigantic areas. Spectacular reflexes are as much in demand as cold-blooded aiming accuracy, because opponents lurk everywhere in the several square kilometres of areas, which stretch over thousands of metres of altitude. To bridge the enormous distances in the game world of Damnation, almost superhuman reflexes must be shown, situations must be captured in seconds and the opponents must be defeated in acrobatic battles. Features: A unique mix of action-packed battle scenes and challenging skill passages. Impressive, several square kilometres large areas that extend over thousands of altitude metres and must be explored by the player. The conscious anti-thesis to previous shooters: huge, open worlds instead of linear paths through boring corridors. The player must save a post-industrial world from the army of a sinister weapons manufacturer. Numerous weapons and vehicles available to the player on his mission Innovative multiplayer modes: fully playable campaign in co-op mode, exclusive multiplayer levels that use the gigantic areas for completely new online action. Press reviews: "There may be an explosive mix, damn it! (PC Games 05/2008 p.64) "Playable, action-packed and full of surprise, it should be. And that's it." (Gamestar 10/2008 p.66) "If Damnation keeps what the first pictures promise, then a completely new action experience with bombastic graphics and great ideas awaits you.
